I heard that, however, I don't want something huge or too expensive, and i'm too old for anything "sporty".

My riding will be "leisurely" at best.

I've been riding a 500 since 2011, they're slow*, but good on gas.

*slow in this context means around as fast as a stock mustang gt.

This seems perfect to me, I'm not trying to have the loudest, baddest, most chromed out bike.

This is my gear

Yes. It is expensive, but it really is worth it. I love mine. I'd buy them again in a heartbeat.

Vent tons of air with all the vents open, over 90f I throw in the gel cooling vest.

Very warm in the winter as well with the rain & winter liners in.

I can wear mine from -10 all the way up to 110.

Don't listen to this guy. He's fat. Everything under 1000cc is slow for him.

This is why you don't ride like a squid around blind corners.
